RETURNING #1 (OF 4) 

[(W) Jason Starr (A) Andrea Mutti (CA) Frazer Irving]

WHY WE LOVE IT: BOOM! We can't get enough innovative mashups of some of our favorite genres: Fantasy, Horror, and Mystery. Plus, we're fascinated with the science of NDE's! WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT: Awardwinning novelist Jason Starr (Wolverine Max, The Chill) and artist Andrea Mutti (Noir, The Executor) deliver a gripping but deeply human drama set in an uncertain world. WHAT'S IT ABOUT: It's 2022, and some people who have had NearDeath Experiences have come back 'changed.' They exhibit extreme behavioral changes, becoming increasingly paranoid and violent, and no one knows why. People who have had NDE's fall immediately under suspicion, and in some cases, are murdered by justiceseeking vigilantes. It is in this world where Beth, a quiet high school student with a bright future, will learn just how quickly friends and family will turn on her when she has the bad luck of surviving the worst night of her life...

TRANSFORMERS 1984 #1 100 PENNY PRESS ED

[(W) Bill Mantlo, Ralph Macchio (A) Frank Springer (CA) Bill Sienkiewicz]

Transformabots are robots that turn into cars and that.  Some people seem to like 'em and it's less than a quid. I think this is a reprint of the original Marvel series #1. Transformabots go botty.
